Check this out, it's not the best video, but it's MP4. That's me adding dye to my HTPC water cooling reservoir under UV light.
I don't get it. OVI always plays my videos (that i uploaded in mp4) to me in flv., so they must have been converted,right? How can i avoid that? How to you get ovi to play back the original mp4?
Your video looks pretty good, but there's no panning or fast movement - 'cause those are the things that result for me in distorting "pixellations" after conversion to flv. I'd be curious to know if ohter people get the same distortions with faster pans or movements...
